Everton Eye Loan Deal for Kalvin Phillips
Kalvin Phillips, the former Leeds star who struggled to find his form at West Ham may have another chance to revive his Premier League career.
According to reports Everton are interested in securing the services of the Manchester City midfielder on a loan deal.
Phillips who signed a six-year contract with City in 2022 after a £45 million move, has found himself out of favor under Pep Guardiola making just two Premier League starts last season.
After a disappointing loan spell at West Ham where he managed only 10 appearances, Phillips is eager for regular game time to win back his spot in the England squad.
Everton seeking a replacement for Amadou Onana following his £50 million transfer to Aston Villa sees Phillips as a potential solution.
However, financial limitations mean the Toffees are only able to propose a loan deal for the 28-year-old midfielder.
